lyrics

My mama calls me simple, it's plain I ain't that smart
This face ain't made for Tee Vee, I ain't no good at art
I'd like to have some peace of mind, I hope that you'll abide
Cause if I have to kick some ass, better hold on for the ride

When I wake up in the mornin', I have to go to work
Make money for some CEO, or self-important jerk
If I work me extra hard, I'll get to stay on late
Gotta have them OT hours to put food on the plate

My mama calls me simple, it's plain I ain't that smart
This face ain't made for Tee Vee, I ain't no good at art
I'd like to have some peace of mind, I hope that you'll abide
Cause if I have to kick some ass, better hold on for the ride

I come home to my room, it's a good thirteen by nine
Kitchen's down the hall, but the bathroom is just mine
Better than a one man cell, or a slap up in the face
For a thousand bucks a month, I got myself a place

My mama calls me simple, it's plain I ain't that smart
This face ain't made for Tee Vee, I ain't no good at art
I'd like to have some peace of mind, I hope that you'll abide
Cause if I have to kick some ass, better hold on for the ride

Workin' while the world is burnin'
Time's up but we must keep earnin'
Payin' just to feed the vermin
All the while, wheel keeps turnin'

Well, some folks pay for privilege, some folks pay for ass
Other folks they scrimp on by, on rent and food and gas
I'd like to think I knew a way, to help to make it right
Takes all I got when I come home, to make it through the night

My mama calls me simple, it's plain I ain't that smart
This face ain't made for Tee Vee, I ain't no good at art
I'd like to have some peace of mind, I hope that you'll abide
Cause if I have to kick some ass, better hold on for the ride
Cause if I have to kick some ass, better hold on for the ride
Cause if I have to kick some ass, better hold on for the ride
